I Look forward to hear if it's any good. How much was it ?
PP2000 seems to be the most common OBD system. It's a very complex system too from my understanding.

I was going to get one but unsure what it shows via the OBD. Can you tell us what it shows when used with your 206?

PP2000 won't work with a generic EOBD connector. You need a specific Peugeot lead so that your computer will communicate with the car.

works amazing in the VXR. Boost, temps etc. Brilliant device. Some people on VXRonline who don't want to go plumbing in gauges have actually had a centre console built to fit an android tablet to show all the information. As the VXR doesn't have a boost gauge or temp gauge as standard for some mad reason.

Unfortunately my Peugeot 206 (1999) can't seem to find or wont talk with the ECU had a look around some forums only to hear that cars later than the Year 2000 are OBDII compliant unless I'm doing something wrong then maybe someone could tell me, The device lights up perfect, lights flickering but doesn't seem to be talking to my ECU. However I do know that this does work with 206's.
Sorry guys
